It was the most pivotal year in Three's Company history for roommates Jack Tripper (John Ritter) and Janet Wood (Joyce DeWitt), featuring the final appearances of Chrissy Snow (Suzanne Somers) and the introduction of her ditzy cousin Cindy (Jenilee Harrison). Don Knotts and Richard Kline co-star in these 22 full length, fall-down hilarious episodes that also include Chrissy's new friend who turns out to be a call girl, Cindy's very strange engagement to a millionaire (Jeffrey Tambor), Mr Furley getting fired, Larry and Jack switching apartments, an unexpected visit by Janet's parents, outrageous return of Stanley and Helen Roper (Norman Fell and Audra Lindley), and much more!!
Editor's Note
The classic sitcom that spawned endless imitators with its sexy singles-based humor, THREE'S COMPANY made a big mark on the comedy sitcom genre. Revolving around endless misunderstandings about sexuality and drugs, and playing off quite a few stereotypes, the show displayed John Ritter's knack for physical comedy, delivering laughs through the comedian's outlandish expressions, gestures, and mannerisms. When aspiring chef Jack Tripper (John Ritter) tells landlord Mr. Roper (Normal Fell) that he is gay in order to peacefully cohabit with his two attractive female roommates, he must construct a web of lies (which proves almost impossible to unravel) in order to cover his tracks. Loveable airhead Chrissy (Suzanne Somers) and sexy Janet (Joyce DeWitt) add to the miscommunication and only make things worse with their antics. Though Chrissy was many fans' favorite character, her appearance throughout the fifth season was sporadic. Some have reported this was due to Suzanne Somers's demand for a higher per-episode salary, the terms of which the show's producers never agreed to. THREE'S COMPANY: SEASON FIVE contains all 22 episodes of the fifth season (the last one starring Somers).
